The turks want to relive the glory of the ottoman empire and create a new caliphate.

Hi, have you been able to find any reliable consistent reporting from the YPG or Afrin in general since their communications were cutoff by the MIT ordring the ISP's to terminate service?
I only am able to discover Turkish equipment movements, and massive disinformation being propragated through social media.
Very limited communications from Rojava Defense forces twitter account, and that is about it. Did you see, that international volunteers are now deploying to Afrin to fight the Turks??? This may add a new element to the equation.

Bold statement
By the looks of it, big tough Turkey is struggling to take Afrin.
